alternative o/s programming

does anyone here program for alternative operating systems (ie not dos, windows or linux) ?

eg Beos
os2
os9
bsd
your home made os

At this moment I'm programming for OS9000 and I'm planning to do some programming in VxWorks. Both are RTOS's and really nice.

I program for Solaris at school.

only alternative os ive programmed for is Solaris.

I write code on HP/UX at work. We also have code running on VOS, but I've not had to do any development on VOS.

since when is solaris an alternative os? just asking...i just never think of UNIX type OS as alternative...

I dunno - it's not Linux, Windows, or DOS, so I put it....

word...that makes perfect sense:) i was just wondering becuase iain didn't put it on his list, yet he said he programs for Solaris and considers it an alternative.

This should slow you down for a while

Hmmm. I'm missing VxWorks in that list. Thought that is one of the most used OS's in embedded. If eCos and QNX are listed, then VxWorks should surely be there.

> then VxWorks should surely be there.
It's under the "realtime" sub-heading (along with several others)

ACOS, ShellOS, and SOS aren't in there!! (My, hillbillie's, and [stealth]'s OS's respectively) :p

why dont you all put them together and make one big
super-OS, it may be able to rival windows!
